Faarfannaa 3
1 Faarfannaa Daawit yeroo ilma isaa Abesaaloom jalaa baqatetti faarfate. Yaa Waaqayyo, diinonni koo akkam baayʼatu! Namoonni baayʼeen natti kaʼaniiru!
Adonai, how my adversaries have increased! Many are those who rise up against me.
2 Namoonni baayʼeen, “Waaqni isa hin baraaru” jedhanii waaʼee koo dubbatu.
Many there are who say of my soul, “There is no yishu'ah ·salvation· for him in God.” (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
3 Yaa Waaqayyo, ati garuu naannoo kootti gaachana koo ti; ulfina kootis; mataa koos kan ol qabdu suma.
But you, Adonai, are a shield around me, my kavod ·weighty glory·, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 Ani guddisee Waaqayyotti nan iyyadha; innis tulluu isaa qulqulluu irraa deebii naa kenna.
I cry to Adonai with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
5 Ani nan ciisa; nan rafas; waan Waaqayyo ol na qabuuf nan dammaqa.
I laid myself down and slept. I awakened; for Adonai sustains me.
6 Saba kumaatama qixa hundaan kaʼee na marse ani hin sodaadhu.
I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 Yaa Waaqayyo kaʼi! Yaa Waaqa koo na baraari! Mangaagaa diinota kootii hundumaa rukuti; ilkaan hamootaa illee caccabsi.
Arise, Adonai! Save me, my God! For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 Fayyinni kan Waaqayyoo ti. Eebbi kee saba kee irra haa jiraatu.
Yishu'ah ·Salvation· belongs to Adonai. Your blessing be on your people. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
